Brad Pitt to Portray He-Man?


He-Man, pictured above with revolutionary torso-twisting action, is ready to have his life story made into a movie. Another movie. Evidently unhappy with Dolph Lundgren's 1980s portrayal, the Masters of the Universe alum has almost convinced Brad Pitt to portray him. Here's what He-Man has said*:

“They are very keen on Brad for the role. He will have to bulk up though - he is very fit but not to ‘He-Man’ proportions.” He-Man - the most powerful man in the universe - is a sword-wielding hero with superhuman powers.

You hear that? He's talking in the third person. I mean, literally, since his name is actually a third-person pronoun. What does that make it? Maybe he's talking in the sixth person, if you add them. Or if you multiply them, I suppose it would make his self-reference actually the ninth person. Whatever the case may be, one thing is for certain: Battlecat should be portrayed by Gilbert Gottfried.

*Note: He-Man is not actually a real person.
